Hi, welcome to OSM. Thank you for your input however your comments make me a little wary. You state 'as per OS map', current OS maps are copyright and cannot be used in OSM and your lines do not match older out of copyright data.
When mapping rights of way we map the line as it exists on the ground, rights of way on an OS map are just an overlay and need to be taken as a rough guide rather than an actual line.
Also it is good to add a designation tag, designation=public_footpath, designation=public_bridleway to confirm your survey based on the coloured waymarks.
If you need any guidance just ask, Derby/Nottingham has a very active and knowledgeable community who can help too.

Comment from Tom Webster
Phil,
Many thanks for your input. I came across this site whilst looking for local walks and footpaths and then thought to check paths crossing our own land. Your current map appears to be incorrect and shows a path that does not exist in practice or on any other map I have seen. It is this that prompted me to make and submit the alterations. I am very familiar with the footpath locations as I have owned the land these path cross for over 30 years. I thought the alterations I had made had been coded as footpaths? I may have got this wrong however.
I would be interested in your thoughts,
Best

Hi Tom
Thank you for your comments, that sounds like you have actually made these changes using your own knowledge, rather than just copied from another map. This is the kind of input we prefer, there is no need to justify what you know/have seen by quoting another source.
Thank you for your input.
Phil
